I, Gardamuse, certainly care about data privacy and I would not have unnecessary data collected, especially as this is a site that you might want to browse discretely. Yet I find the cookie policy notice very annoying, both as a consumer and a producer. The pop-up is both obtrusive for the user, and seems ineffective at actually protecting your data, but I am required by EU law to show it. Much better would be if browsers automatically allowed or disallowed cookies, depending on user preferences, supported by a simple invisible html tag containing cookie information on each page, but I digress.
